My husband and I will be coming to Missouri next week and hope that your facility is open all week(?) May I join when we come?

My main interest is your Marriage Records for Johnson Co., MO dating from 1834. Have those records been digitized by your organization, or perhaps the LDS? Are they available online?
‘also, other early records. Do you have an online compiled inventory (i.e., a LIST) of your holdings for my planning purposes before my arrival?

(4) Information on a dau by his 1st wife = Priscilla Thompson b ~1848 in Lafayette or Johnson Co., MO. I “suspect” Priscilla died as an infant(?)

(5) Information about a son of Joseph’s by Catherine Demasters = Mattison Thompson b ~1855 near Holden, Johnson Co., MO.

(6) Most of the family members were b, m, and d in and around Johnson, Cass and Bates counties MO – except my great grandmother (Phoebe Jane Thompson Woods) who moved with her husband to Colorado 1884-1889.
Phoebe was b AFTER the 1860 US Census; I cannot find the family on an 1870 US Census; and she m my great grandfather BEFORE the 1880 Census, so I have ZERO federal census records showing her with her family of origin. I am hoping there were censuses done 1861-1877 locally in Johnson Co. MO besides the Federal Censuses, that would at least “tally” her with the family.
Because Phoebe predeceased her siblings (except possibly Mattison), she is not listed as a survivor.

I HOPE TO FIND A SHRED OF EVIDENCE there at your facility that will help me confirm my theory on her parentage. My parents (now deceased) and I have tried to solve this mystery since 1980.

Any advice you can offer to make my trip productive will be greatly appreciated.

Is there a reasonable-priced, safe place to stay overnight near your location?

Do you still have copies of this? If so, how much would they cost.
Thanks,
